In this Movember series episode, I sat down with Phil Bennett—a tech leader, new father, and former colleague—to discuss the transformative journey into fatherhood and the critical importance of men’s health. From adjusting to life as a parent to overcoming societal pressures, Phil opens up about the challenges and joys of this new chapter.
Phil shared a powerful insight: “Being ready isn’t a thing.” Parenthood, much like life, is a journey where readiness comes from experience and connection. In our conversation, we explored:
The identity shifts that come with becoming a father
How fatherhood impacts relationships and personal growth
Breaking the stigma around men seeking help for health issues
The importance of role models in fostering emotional openness and leadership
Phil’s story highlights the need for men to embrace vulnerability and redefine what it means to lead—in the home, workplace, and beyond.
